[Spellblade Class]
You have begun to tread the path of learning both Swordsmanship and Magic. Rather than mastering one discipline alone, you seek to fuse the two together into a single fighting style. By enchanting your blade with the known elements at a moment's notice, you can overwhelm your foes in close combat, or unleash powerful Spells from afar. A true Spellblade is never limited by range, allowing you to adapt seamlessly on the battlefield. It is a versatile class.
Class Effect 1: You now gain +3 STR, +3 INT, +2 VIT, +2 WIS, +1 DEX per level up.
Class Effect 2: You can now equip One-Handed Swords and Staffs in lieu of the Shield Slot.
Class Effect 3: While a One-Handed Sword and a Staff are equipped simultaneously, Attack Damage and Magic Damage are merged into a single Stat, Universal Damage.
Class Effect 4: All damaging Active Skills and Spells now scale with Universal Damage while One-Handed Swords and Staffs are equipped.
Class Effect 5: Grants Field Skill - Enchantment (B) - Lv1 (0.0).
!?
I can equip a Sword and a Staff at the same time!?
I could even try it out right away, even though it is not ideal for me right now. It is clear that the Zanpakuto are designed to work with one another, so if I only use one over the other, I won't get the full benefits the two have. I won't be without a loss, though. Frieren's Staff should be more than enough to cover the difference. Especially if I decide to equip Zanpakuto - L where it boosts my physical stats over INT and WIS.
Seeing all of this colorful Purple-Grade Equipment before me, my heart thumped in excitement. One after another, I equipped them. Each one made me stronger and stronger. The best part? Every single one filled out Slots that didn't have any Equipment on. The Gamer Notifications followed. Seeing each one made my smile grow wider and wider.
[Ding! Your Boost Gains have changed!]
[Ding! Your Status has been updated and is ready to view.]
'Show Status Preview', I thought, immediately pulling up my Gamer System once more. I also decided to have a look at Enchantment. It should be what I think it is, and if it is, my attacks will be able to strike a lot of Monsters' weak points going forward.

A/N: Triggered by Points Doubler. I may have made mistakes on this in the past, but going forward, Points Doubler will include Boost Gains. It also increases Damage too, as it is considered an increase, not a change.
I decided to include the Equipment List and the Boost Gain sections for this one, as I wanted to see what my overall changes are.
And wow...
Are these really the Stats of what I should have at Level 13!? This goes way beyond Level 50 at this point!
Let alone Level 5 Zombie Street, Level 10 Kobold Nest should be a breeze now. This is another reminder as to why Points Doubler is counted as an SSS Skill. It factors in a lot when it comes to Stats. Not everything, like when a Skill changes a base stat to something else. Points Gain count as an increase, so that is included. Sheesh.
I also saw Spellblade is now equipped under Classes, as well as that little bit at the end. Enchantable Elements...Now that's new. But I can take a guess as to where that came from. Let's have a look at Enchantment!
[Enchantment]
You now possess the ability to infuse any element that you know how to wield into your strikes. This will increase your offensive capabilities, allowing you to exploit a target's weakness.
Name: Enchantment
Rank: B
Level: 1
Proficiency: 0.0%
Enchantable Elements: Water, Wind, Light
Cost: 1000 MP
Special Effect 1: Adds a chosen element to your next attack. Elements must be learned to be used, or triggered by Equipment.
Special Effect 2: If Spellblade Class is equipped, this Field Skill has no Cost.
Straight forward enough, but that last bit is icing on the cake. As long as I have Spellblade equipped as my Class, I can use Enchantment indefinitely. Now the question remains. How do I bring this up to Frigga...
Frigga became my teacher to teach me the ways of the Asgardians. She has many abilities that she can pass down to me. If I went ahead and showed I could enchant Equipment right off the bat, that could raise suspicion. I might only do it until after she teaches me the ropes. If I do that, and show that I can do it right away, it'll label me a genius in her eyes, and eliminate any suspicion that she may have on me, not knowing I know how to do this before she teaches me.
But...this is Frigga we're talking about here. She could discern Thor's intentions from thousands of miles away at a mere glance when Thor time-travelled into the past to get the Reality Stone from the Aether. It might be better to just not think about it at all. Just let it come naturally. I don't want Frigga to see me in a bad light.
For the time being, I felt satisfied. I did have interest in tackling Kobold Nest right away, but at the same time, I knew I couldn't loiter around, even though Thor gave me permission to wander about the Royal Palace at my leisure.
But before I realized it, more time had passed. Checking the time, it now reads March 2nd, 06:00 PM. The banquet Odin will be holding is likely to be held in an hour or so.
I decided to not dwell on this matter. Thankfully, I did not have to wait long. I heard a couple sounds of shuffling feet approach me. The couple of service maids that service Frigga came back with an outfit in tow. Seeing me still ideal on the bed, one of them couldn't help but raise their eyes at me.
"...You actually waited for us?", One of them said, becoming surprised.
"I did. I know Thor gave me permission to wander around Asgard as I please, but I know it is not in my place to wander around aimlessly. Asgard watches over the Nine Realms, and it is as you all say, I am a Human from Midgard. If I veered off even the slightest bit onto the beaten path, I could have my body shattered into a million pieces without me realizing it. I do not want that danger to befall on me.", I explained.
Hearing that, the two service maids glanced at each other before nodding their heads.
"Well, at least you know where you currently stand, Human. It is not like we Asgardians hate Humans, but at the same time, there are those out there who are much worse who see races, such as yours, inferior to them. I do apologize if what we said earlier came about the wrong way.", The left service maid said. "Lady Frigga, on the other hand, is quite magnanimous, and is accepting of all races, regardless of where they hail from. You should be honored that Lady Frigga accepted to teach you."
"None taken. I am quite honored that Master Frigga has accepted to teach me. I know where I should stand.", I replied.
"Very well.", The left service maid. "And so we are on the same page, you can call me Astrid. The one next to me is Sigrun. We, along with many others, are in service of Lady Frigga. She has requested to change your outfit so it is suitable for the Allfather's banquet tonight. We have brought the clothing as requested."
"Understood. You do not need to attend me as you do to Master Frigga. I can take care of myself.", I said, looking at the Asgardian clothes in Astrid's hands. Now those are very Valkyrie-like names. "It is nice to meet you two."
"Likewise.", Sigrun said, keeping a calm and collected look in her eyes. "We shall wait beyond the doorway until you finish changing. Please keep in mind you will be in the presence of the Allfather once the banquet begins. You will be honored as our guest. Do not forget that."
"Loud and clear."
Astrid and Sigrun left me to my own devices, and stood beyond the doorway, and hid from view. They placed the outfit on the bedside. But just as I was about to see what it looked like and all, I was unexpectedly greeted with more Gamer Notifications, making me pause in my tracks.
[Ding! Your Relationship Status with Frigga's service maids has been changed.]
[Ding! You have become Acquaintances with Astrid!]
[Ding! You have become Acquaintances with Sigrun!]
[Ding! You have received Field Skill, Minor MP Boost (D), by forming a relationship with Astrid!]
[Ding! You have received Field Skill, Minor STR Boost (D), by forming a relationship with Sigrun!]
That...really was the case at play here? I was wondering when Skills like these were going to show up. Guess I'm already counted as an acquaintance with those two, eh? I'll take it. I still find it amazing that this version of the Gamer System acquires a Skill at random when my relationship with particular individuals improves. Who knows, I may even see more of Astrid and Sigrun in the future. It all depends on what I want to do from now on.
I could likely take a guess as to what these two Field Skills do, I didn't have a need to review their details. It is as their name implies, they boost my MP and STR by a margin. I felt even stronger now!
With that out of the way, I looked at the outfit given to me. This...Isn't this a little too flashy!?
What I felt was very soothing to the touch, like it was personally handcrafted from the finest of silkworms you can find back on Planet Earth. It was a large, white robe with a fine lining of gold and blue. Are you trying to make me draw attention here!?
Still, I could only take in a deep breath, and sighed. Putting my previous attire away, I was left in just my boxers. Looking down, I could see I was quite packed, making me pause once again. Were my muscles always this good-looking? I barely had any yesterday. Just a single days' worth of grinding gave me this much already. It isn't the super body-builder type body that Captain America received when he got the Super Soldier Serum, but it's getting there. I wouldn't be surprised if this Gamer System naturally increases my height down the line.
I also saw that my member down below increased a little in size. It's perhaps six inches now, or seven?
I can't wait to experience the nightlife and find prospective dating partners here in the MCU. The whole world is my oyster regarding that. Nonetheless, this stylish Asgardian Robe suits me to a tee. It was crazily scary how comfortable it was. I put the finishing touches, securing the robe with a tight, snuggly fit with its belt.
"Umm, I think it's ready, but I'm not sure how it looks.", I said, calling out to Astrid and Sigrun.
"How you look will matter greatly tonight. You need to dress in a way that will not bring shame to the Allfather.", Astrid said, and arrived beside the doorway. The moment she saw my new Asgardian look, she paused. As did with Sigrun.
"You...", Sigrun murmured, sizing me up from head to toe. "Ignoring that messy hair of yours, You've shaped up nicely. This should be suitable for tonight's banquet."
"I have no issues with how you look either. You will match up quite well against Sir Loki and Sir Thor.", Astrid said, also nodding in agreement. "Let us guide you to the banquet hall. We cannot tarry any longer."
"Got it.", I said. Guess these two were satisfied with how I look now, so I call that a win. I didn't hesitate any longer, and followed after the two. They soon guided me to the banquet hall of the Royal Palace. It didn't take long before I heard a bunch of voices inside, clamoring away!
